In the thrilling adventure of Mickey's Speedway USA, players embark on a high-speed journey across iconic American landscapes to rescue Pluto, Mickey Mouse's beloved dog, who has been snatched by the conniving Weasels in pursuit of his "diamond" collar (which turns out to be a faux gem). With Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Goofy, and Pete behind the wheels, racers delve into the heart of the United States, racing through locations such as New York, Alaska, Los Angeles, and Seattle, all in a desperate bid to save Pluto from the clutches of the nefarious Weasels.
Each character brings their unique skills to the track, from Mickey's all-around versatility to Minnie's nimble handling and quick acceleration. Donald and Daisy mirror their counterparts, while Goofy and Pete dominate with sheer speed, though at the cost of handling finesse. Unlockable characters add further depth to the roster, such as Huey, Dewey, Louie, and Ludwig Von Drake, each with their own strengths and challenges.
In the Grand Prix mode, players find themselves immersed in adrenaline-fueled races, navigating obstacles, collecting tokens for speed boosts, and strategically utilizing boosters for that extra burst of acceleration. As the story unfolds, Mickey and his friends follow a trail of postcards left by the Weasels, racing through bustling cities and breathtaking landscapes, all while facing off against Pete's relentless pursuit.
Despite its mixed reception among critics and players alike, Mickey's Speedway USA delivers an exhilarating blend of racing action and beloved Disney characters. While some critics compare it to the reigning champion of kart racers, it stands on its own as an enjoyable romp through familiar American settings, sprinkled with Disney magic. Whether you're a seasoned racer or a Disney fan seeking adventure, Mickey's Speedway USA promises hours of entertainment and nostalgia as you speed towards the ultimate showdown with the conniving Weasels.
